Curation Hubs
Expert- & community-led special collections
By the CrimRxiv Consortium
Curation Hubs are expert- and community-led special collections of already-published open access (OA) criminology outputs. Each Hub highlights a different criminological niche by centralizing its “best,” “exemplary,” or otherwise most-notable publications. They’re nominated by the public, selected by experts. To launch this initiative, the CrimRxiv Consortium commissioned Criminology’s Public Domain, Open Criminology, and Qualitative Criminology. You can learn more about them by clicking below. In the coming days, we’ll be sharing more information about Curation Hubs. For updates, follow us on Twitter @CrimConsortium.

On the first day at a Magdalene Laundry, women and girls who had been sent there had their hair cut off, their names replaced, and their possessions taken. In the days and weeks that followed, everything else was stripped from them. How do we make sense of this carceral ...
Questionable research practices (QRPs) lead to incorrect research results and contribute to irreproducibility in science. Researchers and institutions have proposed open science practices (OSPs) to improve the detectability of QRPs and the credibility of science. We examine ...
The CrimRxiv Consortium will advance open criminology (“open-crim”) with Curation Hubs: expert- and community-led Collections of already-published criminology outputs. Each Hub focuses on a criminological niche, showcasing its “best,” “exemplary,” or otherwise notable works. ...

The website Sci-Hub enables users to download PDF versions of scholarly articles, including many articles that are paywalled at their journal’s site. Sci-Hub has grown rapidly since its creation in 2011, but the extent of its coverage has been unclear. Here we report that, as ...
